1 General Information

1.1 Description

The CZone Touch 5 is a 5” colour touch-screen, which operates as a Display Interface on any new or
existing CZone network. It is designed for a wide range of applications, and can withstand the harsh
marine and recreational vehicle environments. With its bright touch screen and multiple levels of
backlighting, the Touch 5 provides fast and positive operation in all visibility conditions. Together with
toughened glass and water proofing, this makes it suitable for exposed locations. The Touch 5 can
also be configured as a Wireless Interface, allowing wireless control and monitoring with the CZone
iPad App.

2 Installation

2.1 Mounting Location

Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut. The unit should be mounted so that
the operator can easily use the controls and clearly see the screen. Be sure to leave a direct path for
all of the cables. The unit has a high-contrast screen, and is viewable in direct sunlight, but for best
results install the unit out of direct sunlight. The chosen location should have minimal glare from
windows or bright objects. Choose an area where the unit will not be subjected to excessive vibration,
or heat. Good ventilation is required.

Warning!: Inadequate ventilation may cause the unit to overheat. The unit is designed to
operate in temperatures from -15° C to +55° C (+5° F to +131° F).

2.2 Panel Mounting

The screws and gasket used for panel mounting are included in the box. For mounting instructions,
refer to the Panel mounting template.

2.3 Wiring
Warning!: Before starting the installation, be sure to turn electrical power off. If power is left on

or turned on during the installation, fire, electrical shock, or other serious injury may occur. Be
sure that the voltage of the power supply is compatible with the unit.

Warning!: The unit has a voltage rating of 12 V DC, it is not suited for use with 24 V DC
systems.

The unit is powered by 12 V DC. It is protected against reverse polarity, under voltage, and over
voltage (for a limited duration). The plug of the supplied power cable has two discrete cables exiting
from it. The thickest of the two cables provides the following:

 Power into the system (Red and Black wires).
 Controlling power state of the unit (Yellow wire)

5. 12 V DC supply

6. NMEA 2000 cable and connector

Connect Red to (+) DC using a 3 amp fuse. Connect Black to (-) DC.

2.4 Power Control Connection

The yellow Power Control wire in the power cable is an input that will turn on the unit when power is
applied.

2.4.1 Power Control Unconnected

Device will turn on when the power button on the front of the unit is pressed. Leave the yellow Power
Control wire disconnected and tape or heat-shrink the end to prevent shorting.

2.4.2 Power Control To Supply Positive (Auto On)

Device will turn on immediately when power is applied. Common the yellow wire with the red wire
after the fuse.

2.5 NMEA 2000 Backbone

Run an NMEA2000 cable from the NMEA2000 connector to an NMEA2000 network backbone

3 Getting Started

3.1 First Power Up

If connecting Touch 5 to an existing CZone network, ensure the display has been added to the CZone
configuration file and assigned a dipswitch. Every CZone device on a network requires a unique
dipswitch to operate correctly, and the Touch 5 has a virtual dipswitch. Refer to the CZone
Configuration Tool manual for this process.

1. Turn on the circuit breaker or switch supplying power to the Touch 5.

2. The CZone splash-screen will appear for about 10 seconds then the text ‘Starting
Configuration Claim’. Touch 5 will now read the CZone configuration file from the network.

3. When configuration has been successfully read the text ‘Configuration Successful’ will
appear. It is also possible to write the configuration to the network at a later date for new
installations.

4. Select the virtual dipswitch from the list of configured CZone devices, for new installations the
dipswitch can be set by selecting Dipswitch from the Settings > System page.
